Hello … and goodbye

That could well described the Philippine’s campaign in the 8th Far Eastern Games (FEG) held August 28-31 in Shanghai.

It was in this, the last time the competition was staged from its traditional biennial setting to quadrennial basis held in even years between the Olympic Games, when the national contingent unfurled the nation’s future Olympians in lieu of the faded stars responsible for its athletes winning four general championships eight times from 1913.
